So the world’s richest man, who grew up under apartheid in South Africa and now pulls the mentally deteriorating incoming U.S. president’s strings, has written an op-ed urging Germans to elect a neo-Nazi government. Got that?

Having bought the US election, Musk now wants to buy ours. This ketamine-infused menace thinks global domination is his to buy.
And Farage is grasping for his money.These repulsive men weaponise prejudice for power. They feed off ignorance, resentment and inadequacy.
If they succeed, we have failed.

Whatever you think of Labour's inheritance tax on farms...

Letting Jeremy Clarkson, Nigel Farage & Boris Johnson lead the way is INSANELY STUPID.

Clarkson just wants to dodge tax and the other two already ruined farming with Brexit.... Remember Fishing?!?

It is little known, but the first book burnings in Nazi Germany didn’t target Jewish writers. It was the burning of the library of the Institute of Sexual Research, which was a safe home for trans people.

It is no accident that fascists today walk that same dark path by targeting trans people. /5

America needs leopard journalists now.

Journalists dedicated to showing Trump voters that the leopard always eats your face even when he promises not to.

The amount of staggering, life-altering pain Trump voters will have to experience to wean themselves off him is extraordinary.

But it's coming.

CW: Assisted Dying

Disability Rights UK’s Statement on Assisted Dying

Assistance to die should not be easier to access than assistance to live. Parliament and Government should not allow assisted dying when political choices undermine our lives, and rights, every day.
